ISO 17357 Approved Pneumatic Rubber Fenders - Yokohama Type Marine Fenders
Product Description: High-Reliability Yokohama Pneumatic Fenders
Pneumatic rubber fenders, widely known as Yokohama fenders, are the leading anti-collision medium for marine applications globally. These air-filled rubber fenders provide a gentle reaction force and exceptional energy absorption, ensuring safe mooring and berthing operations even under severe weather conditions.
All of our marine pneumatic fenders are manufactured in strict accordance with the international standard ISO 17357, guaranteeing superior performance and durability. To provide ultimate hull protection, we highly recommend utilizing the classic chain and tire net configuration, which wraps the fender body in a protective shield against abrasion and heavy impacts. We offer a comprehensive range of sizes and pressure types to meet your specific marine engineering requirements.
Key Applications and LNG Fleet Protection
Our pneumatic fenders are field-proven in various demanding maritime environments, including ship-to-ship (STS) transfer operations, commercial ports, and deep-water terminals. As the global demand for Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) bunkering and transport continues to expand, these fenders play a critical role in ensuring safe, spark-free, and stable operations for gas carriers. Designed to withstand extreme environmental conditions and heavy tidal waves, our products deliver unparalleled reliability to the offshore oil and gas industry.
Main Features of Pneumatic Rubber Fenders
High Energy Absorption and Low Reaction Force: Maximizes vessel hull protection by dispersing impact force smoothly over a large air surface.
Adjustable Performance: Operators can easily modify the performance characteristics of the fender by varying the internal air pressure to suit different vessel sizes.
Low Maintenance and Easy Installation: Simple structural design requires minimal regular inspections and lowers long-term operational costs.
Cost-Effective Logistics and Transportation: These pneumatic fenders can be fully deflated and compactly folded for transport, significantly reducing shipping container volume and freight costs.
Tidal Variance Adaptation: The floating nature of the fender allows it to automatically adapt to extreme tidal changes, maintaining constant protection between dock and vessel.
Certified Quality: Fully approved under the ISO 17357-1-2014 standard for international marine equipment safety.
